Abstract: A bag-shaped lining (61) suitable for use in packing a meat product, such as ham, in foil, in which a mould is used to accommodate the bag-shaped foil. The bag-shaped lining is for use with a mould having a cylindrical body (65) formed with the mould cavity of predetermined length and circumference. The lining has a container portion (62) and a collar portion (63) with a combined length greater than the length of the mould cavity so that the collar portion projects beyond the mould when the lining is within the mould. The collar has an internal circumference greater than the container portion of the lining to facilitate the folding of the collar over the open end of the mould during a bag loading operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The cutting head (8) is displaceable in the longitudinal and transverse direction over a machining table (1) along a cutting bridge (7), in turn displaceable along cross guides (6), in order to cut out parts (4) from flat material (3). The flat material or the parts lie on a supporting grid (2), and a second supporting grid (2) can be unloaded during the machining operation and be loaded with a new plate (3). The two supporting grids (2) can be moved into any desired position. In particular, both supporting grids can be removed from the machining table (1) in order to make its inner space accessible and free. By means of a rotary spindle (13) mounted on the table frame, a tube or profile can then be fed from a loading device (15) through the hollow rotary spindle and can be machined. The machining installation is consequently very versatile, permits efficient machining and, owing to good accessibility, permits easy work when changing over from one mode of operation to the other. The laser beam can preferably be guided by a movable scissor arrangement with tubes of constant length, whereby the optical distance between laser source (9) and cutting head (8) can be kept constant. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Raccord d'étanchéité pour un manchon et une chemise de protection d'une électrode en molybdène montée dans la paroi d'un four de verrerie électrique. Dans la paroi, l'électrode est entourée d'un manchon en acier inoxydable dont l'intérieur est revêtu d'électro-corindon et dont l'extrémité extérieure possède un rebord tourné vers l'extérieur et en prise avec la paroi externe ou avec un épaulement situé dans l'ouverture dans laquelle s'étend l'électrode. Le rebord possède une nervure s'étendant axialement vers l'extérieur et à section transversale radiale en V qui vient s'engager dans une rainure annulaire en V cernant l'extrémité intérieure d'une chemise d'eau entourant l'électrode à l'extérieur du four. Des garnitures d'étanchéité réfractaires sont placées entre la bride et la paroi du four et dans les rainures et nervures du manchon et de la chemise d'eau. L'espace annulaire cylindrique étanche entourant l'électrode entre celle-ci et le manchon et la chemise est rempli d'azote de manière à empêcher l'oxydation de l'électrode en molybdène. La chemise d'eau et le manchon sont poussés l'un contre l'autre et contre la paroi externe du four par un support réglable. L'électrode est montée séparée et réglable de sorte qu'à mesure qu'elle s'use à l'intérieur du four, l'on puisse facilement en introduire davantage.

Abstract: A circuit for driving one or more gas discharge lamps (102, 104, 106) from a nominal-level voltage supply includes: a voltage boost IC (144); a self-oscillating, series-resonant oscillator (196, 198, 178, 180) for producing a high-frequency output voltage for application to the lamps via an output-coupling transformer (212); and a voltage clamp (215A, 215B) coupling the transformer to the oscillator input (174, 176). The voltage boost IC is arranged to regulate the power drawn by the circuit to a constant level if the supply voltage is greater than 95% of its nominal value. If the supply voltage falls to less than 95% of its nominal value, regulation is lost and the circuit draws less power in proportion to the fall in the supply voltage. If the supply voltage falls to less than 90% of its nominal value the clamp operates to reduce the power drawn by the circuit at a rate greater than that of the fall in the supply voltage. The circuit thus enables an electric utility generating the voltage supply to reduce the power drawn by the circuit by reducing the supply voltage to less than 95% of its nominal value.

Date Apr. 1, 1993An apparatus and method are disclosed for extruding a product which comprises a longitudinal component, e.g. a tubular sheet and/or longitudinal filaments in a circular array, and transverse filaments which follow a helical path relative to the longitudinal component, whereby the product may consist of a lattice or a reinforced sheet material. The transverse filaments are formed by cooperation between two die parts (101; 102) to which relative movement is imparted so that one part (102) performs a rocking motion progressing around a circular path to influence the extrusion orifice, without rotation of the die parts. The extrusion orifice may comprise an annular slot defined between two die members (106; 108) of the first die part (101) which is held stationary, while the second die part (102) extends around the first part and has an edge for alternatively opening and at least partially closing the slot at each point along its annular extent in response to the relative circular rocking movement imparted to the second part (FIG. 7). Alternatively, the extrusion orifice may be defined between cooperating frusto-spherical surfaces (4, 8) of the two die parts (3, 7) with the inner die part having a groove (9) which is alternately exposed and concealed due to circular rocking motion imparted to this die part (FIG. 1).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an autocrine growth factor isolated from a human germ cell tumor line. In particular, it relates to the production, purification and uses of stem cell proliferation factor (SCPF). The protein of the invention exists in two forms, a soluble form and a membrane bound form which is detectable on the surface of a small percentage of human bone marrow cells and stimulates the proliferation of these cells. Therefore, SCPF may have a wide range of applications including but not limited to augmenting the growth of hematopoietic stem cells. Further, removal of the protein by an antibody may be useful in controlling tumor cell growth.

Abstract: An automatic clutch controller for a vehicle that reduces the oscillatory response to clutch engagement. The automatic clutch controller receives inputs from an engine speed sensor and a transmission input speed sensor and develops a clutch actuation signal controlling a clutch actuator from disengaged to fully engaged. The clutch engagement signal at least partially engages the friction clutch in a manner to cause the measured transmission input speed to asymptotically approach engine speed employing an approximate inverse model of this oscillatory response. The automatic clutch controller preferably includes a slip integral function and a differential engine speed function, which together adaptively adjust clutch engagement corresponding to vehicle loading. The automatic clutch controller includes a prefilter and a compensator constructed to reduce the need for detailed particularization for individual vehicles or vehicle models. A lag compensation function in the compensator adds robustness to the system by increasing low frequency gain. A freeze function suspends operation of the slip integral, the prefilter and the compensator during engine deceleration or when throttle position is high and engine speed is low, to moderate or stop clutch advance to prevent engine overloading. <IMAGE>
